According to Xinhuanet "All desktops, laptops and tablet PCs to be purchased by central state organs must be installed with OS other than Windows 8, according to an online statement by the Central Government Procurement Center."
"The measure only targets computers used by government offices, while the personal computer market is expected to stay unaffected."
And to Zycg "all computer products are not allowed to install Windows 8 operating system."
Xinhua said the country wants to avoid losing support for an operating system like it did recently with Windows XP.
